January 2WW!

Well, I think I'm back here! I still haven't got a +OPK.. grrrrr (yesterday I had an almost positive in the morning, and then that afternoon and evening I didn't even have a faint line) and again this morning it's negative. Our attempts are done though as DH's work schedule is going to cause us to not be able to BD until after midnight on Wednesday night and being that I always have 28-29 day cycles (I'm on CD16) I think if we held off until then I would miss O, so we BD late last night.. here's hoping it worked but I highly doubt that.

Seriously, I HATE opk's!!!!!!! They screwed me up last month too as I never got a positive - got almost positive, then went to nothing!

Anyways, HI :) and congrats to everyone already preggo!

I hated dealing with OPK's too then I started temping and it was so much better because I knew for sure if I had ovulated. Have you tried temping?

My Ovulation Chart

I don't know what to think as this whole month has been a 'dry' one on the CM front and I've only had two small amounts of EWCM so far.

I guess i'll have to see if my temp rises tomorrow as it did drop a little this am

*for some reason everytime I post my chart the link always forwards to an unfinished version on my chart, but the thumbnail you see is up-to-date.. just too small to see unclose

MsBlakely I think from your chart that you haven't ovulated yet!
Looks like you're still waiting to ovulate.

It could even be today as there is a drop so maybe it could rise tomorrow?

Hang in there, hard I know :agree:

I really struggled with the opk too. I kept waiting for it to be darker and never got it, and ultimately relied on my being so regular. I can't imagine trying to pinpoint it so accurately as to do O+12 accurately. We ended up BDing Wed and Thurs before a likely Sat O, so who the heck knows! It seems like you might end up with a copule days before O with your attempt, too. Is that what you've done in the past? I am really curious how long those little swimmers last--seems like two days should work! How early did those of you with BFPs try?

Dream I know how you feel, my cycles prior to September were 35+ days but I wasn't charting so I can't show you! My o date and cycle length has been helped by the soy and the diet I think. I would have loved clomid but am scared to ask as our local doctor is really not into medicine, ironically! He won't give out anything unless its been a big long process and push. Even when I'd been Ill for 10 weeks I didn't get antibiotics. So I just don't bother going anymore.

I'm on cd 4. Think I o'd at 4pm on cd 19 because I had terrible o pains then. Ff seems to agree it was cd 19.

I would say that spike and almost positive opk was your body attempting to o and failing (called a fake o), what vitamins or supplements are you on? You will probably find you get another +opk in the next day or two when you are about to o for real. Just do it again when you can, and don't use acijel or anything in between attempts because you never know which one will catch the egg and you don't want to kill the sperm from your last attempt (I believe I did this a few times unknowingly).

Yah, that spike really through me for a loop - we BD really really late the night before that high temp and when I woke up I was fully under the covers and felt really warm and just knew my temp was going to be high.. and of course it was. I asked on a board and some people think it was just a fluke high temp. I definitely have had O pains today so I'm wondering if it might be happening as we speak...
